ForewordThe UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon launched the

Sustainable Energy for All Initiative (SE4All) in 2011. He

further declared 2012 the year for sustainable energy for

all.

This great initiative is expected to catalyse major new

investmentstoacceleratethetransformationoftheworld’s

energy systems, pursue the eliminationof energy poverty,

andenhanceprosperity.

Thegoalof the initiative is to:mobilize all stakeholders to

take concrete action toward ensuring universal access to

modern energy services; double the global rate of

improvement inenergyefficiencyand;doubletheshareof

renewable energy in the global energymix,within theUN

timeframeof2030.TheGovernmentofKenyafullyembracestheobjectivesoftheSE4AllInitiativeand

appreciatesthatitstimelinesfallwithinthoseofthenationaldevelopmentblueprint,Vision2030.

Kenya opted to be part of the SE4All Initiative, because the Government had achieved significant

stridesindevelopingtheframeworkforenergydevelopment,thankstotheEnergyPolicy,2004,and

Energy Act, 2006. Review of these two documents is almost complete and is expected to further

improve the enabling environment for the engagement of a wide range of stakeholders, and

particularlyprivate sector in thedeliveryof cleanandmodernenergy services. It alsohappensat a

time when petroleum resources have been discovered in the country and will therefore be

instrumentalindiversifyingtheenergymixandaddressingenergypoverty.

The Kenya Action Agenda and Investment Prospectus, has been developed through a consultative

process and has provided useful experience in defining the country roadmap to delivering clean

energy to all Kenyans. In collaborationwith theNewPartnership for AfricanDevelopment (NEPAD)

Energy, EU BizClim Facility and United Nations Development Organization (UNDP), MOEP and HCL

ConsultantsinitiatedandcompletedthedraftActionAgendaandInvestmentProspectus,whichwere

both taken through a validation process after extensive consultations with the stakeholders in the

KenyanEnergySector.

Thereafter theSE4AllHubat theAfricanDevelopmentBankprovided further financial assistance to

enabletherefinementofthedraftAAandIPbyConsultantsITPowerUKandIntegralAdvisoryLimited

It is therefore with great pleasure that I present the Kenyan Action Agenda and Investment

Prospectus,whichrepresents thethirdmilestone in the four-stepSE4Allprocess,namely: i)Country

Opt-in; ii) Stock-Taking and Gap Analysis; iii) Country Action Plan (Action Agenda and Investment

Prospectus)and;iv)Implementation,Monitoringandevaluation.

This AA therefore paves way for mobilization of resources and multi-stakeholder engagement to

facilitate implementation,monitoring and evaluation of high impact opportunities and high impact

initiatives and priority projects in the energy sector. It also presents the opportunity for increased

privatesectorparticipation.Itisworthwhiletorememberthatchallengeswillalwaysbetherebutthe

Accesstomodernenergyservices1 isanecessarypreconditionforachievingdevelopmentgoals that

extend far beyond the energy sector, such as poverty eradication, access to cleanwater, improved

public health and education, women's empowerment and increase food production. The United

Nations (UN) Secretary General launched the SE4All Initiative in September 2011 to achieve three

inter-relatedgoalsby2030:

• Ensuringuniversalaccesstomodernenergyservices;

• Doublingtheglobalrateofimprovementinenergyefficiency;

• Doublingtheshareofrenewableenergyintheglobalenergymix;

The SE4All Initiative requires countries to set quantitative objectives for each of the three goals as

The above SE4All timelines fall within those of Kenya’s national long-term development blue print,

Vision 2030, whose purpose is to create a globally competitive and prosperous nation with a high

quality of life by 2030.The vision is anchored on three key pillars; economic, social and political

governance.TheMediumTermPlan(MTP)operationalizestheVision2030.TheMTPalso integrates

international community development goals such as Global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The first MTP was implemented between 2008 and 2012. The current (second) MTP outlines the

policies,programmesandprojectswhichtheGovernment intendsto implementduringthefive-year

periodstartingfrom2013to2017.

The SE4All9 Global Action Agenda (AA) was issued in April 2012 and it is based on a framework

in 2014 and a record low of 155.69 US$ in 1960. According to Kenya Facts and Figures 201418,

agriculture, forestry and fishing industry is the second largest employer by sector (15.3%), after

education (17.7%). The total working population in public (30%) and private sector (70%) is 2.26

The high levels of poverty incidence in Kenya remain a serious impediment to increasing access to

modernenergyservices.In2009,45.6%ofKenyanslivedbelowthepovertyline.Themajorityofthe

poor inruralareasarefoodandsubsistencefarmersandthosewhoderivethebulkoftheir income

from the informal sector; the urban poor aremainly in the informal sector. About a third of rural

households are female-headed, and two-thirds of them have nomale support, in otherwords, are

headedbywidowed,divorced,orseparatedwomenwithchildren.Theincidenceofseverepovertyis

significantly higher among such households—44 percent compared to 20 percent for male-headed

households.Amajorcauseofpovertyamongdivorcedandseparatedwomenisthelossofaccessto

will not afford the modern energy carriers envisaged in the SE4All objectives unless appropriate

1.2.3 EnergyResources-DemandandSupply

Themain resourcesof energy inKenyaare renewableenergy and fossil fuels. The country is highly

dependent on biomass energy, which provides 68% of the total energy supply. Fossil fuels and

electricity provide 22% and 9% respectively while other sources provide 1% of the overall energy

requirements. Petroleum is imported in both crude and refined forms and accounts for 25%of the

nationalimportbill(KNBS,2011).

Woody Biomass is the most important contributor to renewable energies, though biomass is only

renewable if its sustainable production is ensured. Unsustainable logging to produce wood fuel

(charcoal in particular) is a primary cause of deforestation in the country alongside other negative

3.2.1 StatusandTrajectory

Kenyaisendowedwithlargerenewableenergyresourcesofwind,geothermalandhydropowerbutdevelopingtheseposesanumberofchallenges.

Biomass fuels are the largest source of primary energy in Kenya with wood-fuel (firewood andcharcoal)accountingforabout69%ofthetotalprimaryenergyconsumption.About55%ofthis isderivedfromfarmlandsintheformofwoodybiomassaswellascropresidueandanimalwasteandtheremaining45%isderivedfromforests.There isagapbetweentheexistingtreecovervis-a-visthe minimum constitutional requirement of 10%88. The continuous overreliance of Biomass as aprimarysourceofenergythreatensachievementofthisrequirement.

The Government in 2010 developed a strategy for introduction of biofuel blends in the market.Facilities for ethanol-gasolineblendinghavebeen completed in Kisumu tobe followedby EldoretandNakuru.However,therearenotsufficientquantitiesofbio-ethanolfeedstocks.

Thedemandforsolarwaterheating(SWH)isprojectedtogrowtomorethan800,000SWHunitsby2020equivalentto300,000TOE.Thisrepresentsagrowthrateof20%perannum.Thisdemandwillmainly be from domestic, institutional and small commercial consumers spurred by theoperationalizationoftheEnergy(SolarWaterHeating)Regulations,201290.

Anestimateof6MWofsolarPVSystemcapacitywasinstalledinresidentialandcommercialsectorsthrough the private sector initiative in 2014. By the year 2020, it is projected that the installedcapacityofsolarphotovoltaicsystemswillreach100MWegenerating220GWhannually91.

fluctuations in yearly hydropower availability due to droughts has historically resulted in acuteelectricity shortages, causing the capacity factor to drop frommore than 53% to as low as 33%during severe drought conditions in 2009 (Government of Kenya, 2011).When combined with alimiteddevelopmentof thesegeothermal resources, thishas led to thedependenceof thepowersector on imported oil, almost entirely from the United Arab Emirates, for over 30% of totalgenerated power (UNEP, 2006; EIA 2014). Due to unsustainable supply, the use of biomass forpowergenerationislimitedtobagasseandmunicipalwaste.

AccordingtoLCPDP2013-2033renewableenergyinthepowergenerationmixisplannedtobe42%of the 20,156MW in 2030.

3.3 ENERGYEFFICIENCY

3.3.1 CurrentStatusandTrajectory

The available data shows the that since 2006 to 2012 the energy intensity for Kenya has been

constantato.26TOE/$2005PPP in thehencemakingtheanalysisof thetrajectory for therateof

improvementinenergyefficiencyuntil2030,usingenergyintensityasthemeasure,iscomplex.As

indicated in the targets section, energy intensity is the measure used in the Global Tracking

Framework to imply improvements inenergyefficiency in the contextof SE4All.However, energy

intensity is an imperfect proxy given that a number of factors not necessarily linked to energy

efficiency can affect it. Primary energy consumption, total GDP, and Purchase Power Parity (PPP)

figuresareusedtocomputethisindicator.In2012,Kenya’senergyintensitywasat0.25toe.

Given (i) the different sectors in which energy efficiency can be applied (grid electricity,modern

cooking,buildings,appliances,transport,etc.),and(ii)theneedforenergyconsumptiongrowthto

buildtheeconomy,itisdifficulttosetfirmnumbersandtargetsonenergyefficiency.Theapproach

of Kenya to energy efficiency, and the trajectory, in the target section, is based onmeasures to

encourage efficiency (e.g. energy audits in industry, encouragement ofmore efficient appliances,

mandatestoswitchtosolarwaterheaters,etc.)

3.3.2 ExistingPlans/Strategies

In the sphereof energy efficiency, plans and strategies addressing inter alia residential, industrial

andcommercialenergyefficiency,andenergyefficiencyintransport,are:

• EnergyEfficiencyImprovementinbuildings-newresidentialbuildingsarerequiredtoinstall

solarwaterheaters,withtargetof800,000unitsby2020103.

• Energy Management Regulations (2012) provide guidelines on energy auditing and

management. The government is also offering support to Kenya Association of

Manufacturers(KAM)toundertakeenergyefficiencyauditsandotherprogrammetrainings.

• Energyefficiencyinitiativesrelatetobiomasscookingandheating.Mostofthisworkisled

by civil society with support from the government as seen in the development and

BuildingsandAppliances

Widespread implementationof state-of-the-artpolicies,buildingdesignand technologies, coupled

withbehaviourchangecoulddeliverreductionsinenergydemandfromnewandexistingbuildings

of over 50% compared to business as usual (IPCC, 2014). Achieving such savings would not only

significantlyreduceGHGemissions,butalsoproduceadditionalcomfort,health,environmentaland

economic benefits. Kenya has put in place various policies to address energy efficiency in the

building and appliance sector which include Minimum Performance Standards (for CFL, motors,

refrigerators), solar water heating regulations, 2012 draft energy management regulations,

regulationsoninstitutionalbiomassandstandardsforbiomasscookstoves.

Industrialandagriculturalprocesses

AsurveyofKenyanindustriesrevealedthatwastageofenergyinputrangedfrom10%to30%.This

wasattributed to lackof information,motivationandexpertiseaswellas financial restrictions.At

Agriculture

AgricultureisoneofthemostimportantsectorsintheKenyaneconomy.However,majorityof Kenyan practice small-scale subsistence farming and the use of energy consumingtechnologies inminimal.Mostly farming isdonemanually and theydonotpractice valueadditiontotheir farmproducts. Thiscanbeattributedto lowincomelevelstoaffordthetechnology hence huge losses due to badweather. However,with economic growth andfarmers will shift from subsistence farming to modern agriculture thus energy efficiencymeasures would be important for agricultural producers save energy without harmingproductivity.

Transportation

Accordingtothe internationalenergyagency (IEA), thetransportsectorhasthehighestgrowthof

3.5 ENABLINGACTIONAREAS

Energy policies are quitewell developed in Kenya; however, there are some areaswhich require

furtherdevelopment, particularly, thebiomassandoff-grid sectors. In addition, there is a general

needtoimprovetheclarityintermsofenforcementandoverlappingwithothersectorspoliciesas

wellastoimprovegovernanceandinteractionbetweenallthestakeholders,includinggovernmental

institutions, donors and civil society. National coordination to monitor the implementation of

policiesandstrategies,developeffectiveandcomprehensiveplanninganddefineadequatefunding.

3.5.1 EnergyPlanningandPolicies

Areasthatrequirefurtherdevelopmentarethebiomassandoff-gridsectors.Inaddition,thereisa

general need to improve the clarity in terms of enforcement and overlapping with other sector

policies aswell as to improve governance and interactionbetweenall the stakeholders, including

governmental institutions, donors and civil society. Part 2 of the Fourth Schedule of the Kenyan

Constitution (2010) provides for devolvement of functions to county governments. It states that

County Governments shall be responsible for planning and development energy sector which

include preparation of county energy plans, incorporating petroleum and coal, renewable energy

and electricitymaster plans, physical planning relating to energy resource, provision of land and

rights ofway for energy infrastructure, regulation and licensingof retail supply of petroleumand

coalproducts.RolesofCountyGovernmentintheenergysectorareelaboratedinthedraftNational

3.5.5 AwarenessandKnowledgeManagement

• Develop amethodology and implementation plan for creating andmaintaining the SE4All

EnergyData Base.Design of data collection and processing process should apply rigorous

methods (such as individual programme evaluations, cross-national quantitative studies,

systematizedexpert interviews, and sectorial surveys) andbe capableofproducing timely

data suitable for Kenya’s implementation of SE4All’s GTF and country reporting to the

InternationalEnergyAgency’s(IEA).Itwillalsoencompassthe:

o Biomass Information System (BIS): Themajor purposes of the information system

are to: (i) Keep track of the new biomass energy technologies and their success

rates; (ii) Support continuous updating of the strategy; and (iii) Provide timely

informationfordecisionmakingandplanning.

o Renewable Energy Resource System (RERS): This will be the umbrella for the

differentrenewableenergyresourcesassessmentandmapping,inordertoconfirm

the potential at specific sites and accelerate project development by the private

sector.

CSOs(inclusiveofprivatesector)andNGOsrepresentatives.

Once the AA is validated and adopted, this Committee should remain in place and should meet

regularlytoprovidesupportandadvicetotheSE4AllSecretariat.

TheSecretariatistheAA’sleadadvocacyandmanagerialunitthat:

• Will monitor SE4All related projects and studies, which should remain under the

responsibilityoftherelevantGovernmentAgenciesandinstitutions.

• Takestheresponsibility forrealizingSE4Allgoals, implementingthe IP(s)associatedtothis

4.6 EFFECTIVEMONITORINGANDEVALUATION

4.6.1 GuidelinesDesigning and implementing aMonitoring, Evaluation andReporting (MER) system is an essential

task that will allow Kenya to track, assess and report progress on the achievement of expected

outcomesundertheSE4AllInitiative.TheMER,astool,allowsforidentifyingkeyissuesthatneedto

beaddressedtoensureaproperimplementationoftheAA.ItwillalsoallowtheGoKtoreviewand

update the AA in the future. The MER system will therefore comprise a Monitoring Plan, an

EvaluationPlan,andaReportingPlan.

4.6.3 EvaluationPlan

The evaluation process consists of annual reviews of the progress made through the activities

conductedandperformanceachievedtowardsthetargetsthataresetunderKenya’sSE4AllAA.

The evaluation will ensure a broad and representative perspective on the achievements and

challenges in the implementation of Kenya’s SE4All activities, andwill allow the adequacy of the

adopted strategy tobe assessed tomeet the targets as plannedand take any corrective action if

needed. The evaluation should include the provision of recommendations for future monitoring

periodsanditisintendedtoinformthestakeholdersparticipatingintheimplementationoftheAA

offollow-upactionsrequiredtofurtherstrengthenitsperformanceandstrategicactivities.

Ingeneral,terms,thepurposeoftheevaluationactivitiesistwofold:

I. To contribute to improving programme effectiveness and delivery towards Kenya’s SE4All

goalsby2030byusingknowledgeandlessonslearntfromitsimplementationbackintothe

countryinitiative;

II. TocontributetooverallalignmentofstrategicactivitiesoftheAAandensurethatitremains

relevant to addressing country level objectives whilst also aligned to the global SE4All

Initiative.

During the annual SE4All evaluation, the designated SE4All Secretariat will review the resultsachieved in the current monitoring period in comparison to the baseline and the previous year:progressonactionsandtargetsmetasplanned inKenya’sAAusing theselected indicators. Itwillalsohelpidentifytheactionsneededforthefollowingyear.

The annual report would beprepared in consistent manner with MTP cycle and shared with Stakeholders for awareness,socializationandpropercontributionsontheirpart.

4.7 FOLLOW-UPANALYSIS

There is a need for additional follow-up analysis in two main areas. Firstly, there is a need todevelop more detailed action plans with priorities, timelines and budgets in each of the mainthemescoveredbythedifferenttechnicalworkinggroups.Theseplanscanthenbeusedtomanageandtrackimplementationoftheactions.TheseplanswillintegrateactionsarisingfromtheSE4ALLAction Agendawith those in the energy sector strategic plan, and additional actions identified inotherstrategies.

Secondly, additional scenario analysis is required to assess the costs of different pathways to theSE4ALLgoals, and toexplore sensitivityof thegoals themselves tovarious sourcesofuncertainty.Theseincludetechnicaluncertainties(e.g.availabilityofdifferentsourcesofgeneration),aswellaseconomicandsocialuncertaintiessuchastheaffordabilityofdifferentsolutions,andthedegreeofregional integration of energy systems. In practice, the goals outlined in this Action Agenda areillustrative,andthegovernmentwillneedtokeepthesegoalsunderreviewandreviseasnecessaryinresponsetonewemerginginformationandasprogressmadebetweennowand2030.

4.8 LINKINGTOINVESTMENTPROSPECTUS

TheActionAgendaisastand-alonedocumentthatprovidesaframeworkforachievingthenationalSE4ALL objectives. On a “global” level, it provides for interventions (policy adjustments, financialallocations,businessmodeldevelopmentsandcapacitybuilding initiatives) thatwill focusnationalsupportforenergyaccess,renewableenergyandenergyefficiency.However,asshowninFigure9,theActionAgendaprovidesforspecificmeasuresthatwilldriveparticularinvestmentsthatarepartof the Investment Prospectus. In this way, some AA activities will be “operationalized” by anInvestment Prospectus (IP) that is a separate document and describes a set of investments thatGovernment, the private sector developers, civil society organisations, finance organizations andotherstakeholderscansupport.

The IP contains investment opportunities and a priority projects pipeline emanating frompriorityprojectareas identifiedintheAA.Theprojects intheIParethosethatcanbeimplementedintheshort term and have been prepared adequately to attract investments. The IP projects consist ofboth, infrastructural andnon-infrastructural projects. TheAApresents the strategic elements andproject priorities for the IP. The IP has Kenya’s status of why investors should invest in Kenya’senergy sector considering both national and sector level investment conduciveness and theinstitutionalframeworkthatwillsupportIPimplementation.

ANNEX2:THESUSTAINABLEENERGYFORALL(SE4All)INITIATIVE

ThisActionAgenda(AA) inthecontextofSE4All initiativepresentsasector-wide long-termvision

on SE4All goals and the country action to achieve the set goals. The global goals are: Universal

access tomodern energy services, doubling global rate of improvement of energy efficiency and

doubling the global share of RE in the energy mix by 2030. Kenya has targets to match specific

countrydevelopmentneedshence thisAAhasspecificgoals forKenyawith intermediateandend

targets based on the country’s Vision, policies and development plans and programmes. Where

nationaltargetsarenotdefined,theglobalSE4Allgoalsareassumed.

OnDecember21st,2012,theUnitedNationsGeneralAssemblydeclared2014–2024theDecadeof

SustainableEnergyforAll.Worldwide,1.2billionpeople,nearlyonepersoninsixontheplanet,lack

access toelectricity.More than twiceasmany,2.8billionpeople, relyonwood, coal, charcoalor

animal waste for cooking and heating. This creates major barriers to eradicating poverty and

buildingsharedprosperity.

The SE4All Global Action Agenda (AA) was

issued in April 2012 and it is based on a

frameworkproposingaglobalAAforuniversal

energy access, foster EE and boost investment

in RE. The SE4All goals are expected to be

achieved through a number of High Impact

Initiatives (HIIs), which are targeted, on-the-

ground programs or projects, and categorized

intoHighImpactOpportunities(HIOs)whichare

Approximately 50 High Impact Opportunities

have been identified to date115 but only 10 are confirmed which are: Advanced Lighting and

Appliance Efficiency, Building Energy Efficiency, Energy and Women’s Health, Finance, Modern
